Psalm 50:5. “Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.”
GATHER THE SAINTS. God has something to say all of us need to hear.
Let heaven and earth together all draw near. Leave what you are doing and come you all to where – God is gathering His saints.
Zion is the perfection of beauty, God has shined His love on her truly, To pay attention to it is our duty – God has gathered His saints.
He bids those for whose sin He atoned, To come together and gather as one. He has something to say to all – not alone, God has gathered His saints.
Nothing we possess can we claim as ours – Every animal, all the land, every flower, Belong to the One who created and maintains by power – Listen when God gathers His saints.
Everything I can hold in my hand, With every word in my mouth, my mind expands. All my eye sees, my ear is under God’s command – For God has gathered His saints.
All turn your minds to the blessings of His grace; Review His truths, all His actions trace; God Himself has brought you to this place – It is God who has gathered His people.
The vows of God are upon you – you must pay; He maintains your life in every way; Glorify Him together all ye people – let us praise – Our God who has gathered His people.
“The years have passed, Father, and more than ever, I appreciate the place of His name where Thou hast gathered Thy people. Recently, I have come to appreciate it even more when I was with those people whose language I couldn’t speak. The words they spoke to Thee and the tone of voice were enough to know they appreciated the Savior I, too, love. I thank Thee for everyone Thou hast gathered. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
